example structure

[0091]The structural capacity of the fully constructed final structure can be increased by securing together multiple snap-in framing members to act as a single but larger structural framing member by use of the snap-in and slide-in connection components of the present invention and discussed above. The snap-in framing members are further stabilized by using the custom reinforcement brackets of the present invention.

[0092]The easy quick connect structural system is a very versatile structural framing system which is useful for framing design projects quickly and efficiently. The main advantage to the design of the easy quick connect structural system is that it facilitates quick setup for any structural framing requirement size with simple future expandability opportunities.

[0093]The base model frame structure is a special frame with a unique size of 12′ wide×20′ length×8′ height dimensions that is new to the portable or prefabricated housing market place. Embodiments of the inventi...

Abstract

A kit for an easy quick connect structural system for constructing framework structures comprising a plurality of elongate rectangular prism frame members is provided. The frame members incorporate custom design features which provide structural strength, facilitate assembly and expansion of the framework structure and allow ease of attachment and securing of accessories. These design features include a corner groove, a central hollow longitudinal chamber, at least one sub-trade chamber, at least one outer main channel, stub-nosed channels, and claw assembles flanking each corner groove. There is provided a plurality of snap-in connectors designed and configured to mate with the frame members such that the frame members can be secured in various arrangements with respect to each other. There is further provided custom reinforcement brackets designed and configured to securely bind together a selection of the plurality of the frame members.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The invention relates generally to a construction system for design of framework structures in the construction and manufacturing industries. In particular, this invention relates to an easy quick connect structural system.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Prefabricated structures are buildings or structures that are constructed from standard sections that are manufactured off-site in advance and then shipped and assembled at the desired final location. Structural framing systems are found in the construction industry, agricultural / landscaping industry, home improvements industry and the toy industry.[0003]Mainly due to transportation difficulties, current designs for prefabricated structures are generally limited in size and the final structure is not readily expandable.[0004]While various prior designs for prefabricated structures have some degree of isolated merit, none fully meets all the objectives of providing a structural system that is long lasting...
